After nearly three weeks of temperatures pushing, bordering and exceeding 40c, running like a melting glacier early in a day, enjoying beautiful Croatia coast, here's a photo of an incoming storm that temporarily brought the Celsius to acceptable 29c, before it's expected to shoot up to mid 30ies again. Sounds crazy but l will miss this experience and will try and do it again :) Stansted, here l come ;)

Oh I think that was the storm that hit us this morning at about 4am, Lucifer's revenge. Enjoy Stansted (is that even possible?)

My wife reckons that my outfit, this time it's Chicago Bulls, will prevent me from passing through the customs :) Oh dear, l do fear the sudden temperature change...

Chicago Bulls a little more subtle than the last one..

Yes, it was stunning and wild, one feels completely helpless. Power and beauty of nature, priceless :)

See, l like rain, don't mind it at all. Cold? Nothing wrong with cold, l have nice clothes. Wind? Well, there's always at least some sort of wind. It disturbs my quiff but that's alright. Darkness? I find it calming. Gales? Ok, l draw the line with gales :) Anything that's messing up with my music l have issues with ;) Hey, small price to pay after all :)
